Sumario:With the rapid development of sequencing technology and the plummeting cost, assembling whole genomes from non‐model plants will soon become routine for plant systematists and evolutionary biologists. Here we summarize and compare several of the latest genome sequencing and assembly approaches, offering a practical guide on how to approach a genome project. We also highlight certain precautions that need to be taken before investing time and money into a genome project.
